Windows Weekly 264: When Will Then Be Now?

In the latest episode of the Windows Weekly podcast, Leo Laporte, Mary Jo Foley, and I discuss Microsoft's E3 announcements, how they compare to the Nintendo and Sony announcements, Microsoft's Computex announcements and the coming wave of Windows 8 and RT devices, Microsoft by the numbers, Windows Azure spring update, a crazy month of trade shows and industry events, Google's Quickoffice buy, and Chrome coming to Metro.

Picks

Tip of the week: Free Microsoft eBooks!

Software pick of the week: Zune Music Pass

Zune Music Pass will most likely be rebranded to Xbox Music Pass--god forbid they tell anyone this--but we do know this: It will continue working with the switchover to Xbox, will have over 30 million tracks (vs. 20m today) and work across Windows PCs, Windows RT tablets, Windows 8 devices, Windows Phones, the Xbox, and the web. And it costs just $9.99 a month or $99 a year (12 months for the price of 10).
